Animal Communication ~ How to Speak Whale
On September 12, 2015, Tom and a friend were on a guided kayak tour in Monterey Bay, off the coast of California. There was so much food in the rich waters of the bay that whales were engaged in an feeding frenzy. As kayaks and boats shared the water with the whales, a humpback breached and came down on Tom and his friend. They survived, but this experience sent Tom—a biologist by training—on an exciting journey of exploring the question - Could we communicate with whales and other animals?
Drawing from his experience as a naturalist and wildlife filmmaker, Tom started investigating human-whale interactions around the world - when he met two tech entrepreneurs who wanted to use artificial intelligence (AI) – originally designed to translate human languages – to discover patterns in the conversations with animals and decode them. As he embarked on this new journey into animal eavesdropping technologies, where big data meets big beasts, Tom discovered that there is a revolution taking place in biology, as the technologies developed to explore our own languages are turned to nature.
